Guest Reviews:
- "The room was the perfect size for a family of 4. My kids loved the toys that were provided, and my husband and I enjoyed the coffee machine. My parents also stayed and their room was a great size too, especially as they were travelling with their dog. The staff were friendly and helpful, especially as we ended up arriving rather late. We travel to Scotland regularly, so we will definitely re-book for our next trip north." - "The room was beautiful and clean. The staff was extremely friendly. When I arrived too late to eat dinner in their restaurant, they called another restaurant for me and arranged a reservation. They also upgraded my room due to availability without me asking. They were wonderful."
